Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory

The secret passages under the Red Keep are very complicated. People who are not familiar with this place will get lost quickly. Tyrion followed to the end and even had to grab Varys's clothes to avoid taking the wrong path in the dark.

I don’t know how long they walked, but Wallis, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped and said, "Be careful, there should be guards patrolling ahead at this time. Did you hear the footsteps?"

Tyrion looked confused. He seemed to hear it at the moment, but he seemed not to hear it at the same time.

Varys handed the lantern in his hand to Tyrion and said, "Wait here for a while. I'll go to the front to see if the guards have left." Then, he pointed to the spiral staircase going up to the side and said, "This spiral staircase The Prime Minister's Room leading to the Prime Minister's Tower, when you are alone, it is best not to make any noise and be discovered."

After saying that, Wallis tiptoed into the dark passage ahead.

Tyrion waited there for a while with the oil lamp, looked at the aisle, and then at the spiral staircase. He seemed to have made some decision, took steps, walked up the spiral staircase, climbed up the stairs, and reached the top of the spiral staircase.

At this time, he suddenly heard several chuckles from the secret door at the top. The laughter sounded very familiar and reminded him of someone.

After standing there for a moment, Tyrion gathered up his courage, carefully pushed the secret door open, and walked in.

Just after Tyrion entered the secret door, Varys, who had just gone to inquire about the situation, appeared on the spiral staircase. He looked at the opened secret door coldly, with a smile on his face.

Then he stood quietly at the door, waiting for the final result. When he heard heavy footsteps coming from the other side of the secret door, he pretended to be panicked and got into the secret door, just in time to see a person. Tyrion walked over with a blank expression on his face, holding a crossbow in his hand.

"You're crazy! I didn't tell you not to..." Varys complained softly, but suddenly his words stopped abruptly, and he pointed to the crossbow in Tyrion's hand with a look of panic and said, "What did you do? Little devil, what have you done?"

However, Tyrion did not answer him, but casually discarded the crossbow on the ground and walked into the secret door.

Varys quickly walked into the Prime Minister's room and saw Shae strangled on the bed and Lord Tywin dead on the toilet, with a smile on his face.

But when he looked back, he saw Tyrion pointing the crossbow he had just discarded at him.

"Who are you?" Tyrion looked at Varys in front of him very calmly, and said in a deep voice: "You deliberately arranged all of this. You want me to kill the person I love most and make me become Patricide, who are you? Why do you hate me so much?"

"Hate? No, my lazy servant, I don't hate you at all." Wallis's voice has turned into a woman's voice.

And when he heard this sound that felt extremely familiar to him and had been heard countless times in his sleep, Tyrion's face was full of shock, as if he had seen a ghost, and he could not hold the crossbow in his hand and let it go. It fell to the ground, and his excitement made his breathing become extremely rapid. His eyes were filled with anticipation and fear, and he said to Wallis: "Who are you?"

I saw Varys reaching out and grabbing a piece of skin under his neck, and slowly peeled it off, revealing a pretty woman's face with slightly freckles and fur, and then heard her say: "My love, Tyrion ”

"Tessa!" Tyrion sat down on the ground and looked straight at Tessa.

"Tessa? What a familiar name. I haven't used this name for more than ten years. My current name is Jia Kun. That was the name given to me by my teacher, and Tessa died more than ten years ago. "Tessa walked up to Tyrion, knelt down, touched Tyrion's face, and said, "Tyrion, my love, your Tessa died more than ten years ago. Listen. Reached?"

Tyrion reached out to grab Tessa's hand, but Tessa dodged it and climbed up with him, asking: "Where have you been all these years? I have been looking for you, and I have never given up. Looking for you, I..."

"No, you don't need to say any more! I know what you did." Tessa said, turning her head to look at Shae's body on the bed and said.

"I..." Tyrion didn't know how to explain for a moment.

Tessa ignored Tyrion's explanation and walked towards the secret door while saying: "We should go. Tywin's attendants will come in a while. When we see the body and sound the alarm, we will It’s hard to leave.”

Tyrion hesitated for a moment, then quickly followed.

While walking through the secret passage, Tyrion once again asked Tessa about her movements over the years. This time Tessa did not refuse to answer. She calmly explained how she was rescued from the trash by Linde and how she was taken to the cloth by her teacher. Lavos briefly talked about how he became the Faceless One and finally became the Master of the Faceless One.

"No wonder Lind said you have enough reasons to retaliate against me." Tyrion also said suddenly.

"No, I never thought about taking revenge on you. I was taking revenge on Tywin. You were just a pawn that I used!" Tessa stopped and looked at Tyrion calmly and said.

Tyrion suddenly asked in a deep voice: "Did you find Shae and let her accuse me?"

"Yes." Tessa nodded and said, "You shouldn't send her away. When you send her away, she will hate you as much as she loves you."

"Why did she appear in the Prime Minister's room..." Tyrion asked again.

"She is a whore." Tessa looked at Tyrion calmly and said, "A real whore."

When Tessa said that taboo word, Tyrion was severely stung in his heart, but he couldn't say anything, not even a refutation.

The two of them walked in the dark passage one after another, and they said nothing again until they walked out of the Red Keep.

"My lord, I am very happy to see that you are safe and sound." When he walked out of the exit, Varys, who had been waiting there, saluted Tyrion.

Not only Varys was here, Bronn and Podrick were also waiting there, and they all smiled when they saw him coming out safe and sound.

"I'm not surprised that Varys is here." Tyrion looked at the people in front of him doubtfully, and asked with a hint of disbelief: "But why are you here, Bronn and Podrick?" ? Are you also related to this conspiracy against me? "

"Conspiracy? What conspiracy?" Podrick was completely stunned. He pointed at Varys and said, "Lord Varys said he would rescue you. After you escape, you will go to the continent of Essos. , I will never come back, so I will take Lord Bronn and me here to wait for you."

Bronn on the side also nodded in agreement, but his eyes were always fixed on Tessa, and his hand was always on the hilt of the sword at his waist. The reason for this was because of the mercenary instinct he had developed over the years. He felt that the woman who followed Tyrion was very dangerous, dangerous enough to kill him easily.

"Aren't you going to introduce me, my lord?" Bronn asked warily.

"My wife Tessa." After Tyrion introduced him, he turned to look at Tessa, hoping to see the expression he hoped to see on Tessa's face.

However, Tessa didn't respond at all to Tyrion's introduction, as if she was listening to him introducing an unknown stranger. Tyrion couldn't help but show a look of disappointment on his face.

"Tessa?" Bronn was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then suddenly remembered something and confirmed: "Is that Tessa?"

Tyrion nodded, and Tessa frowned slightly.

"Why didn't she kill you?" Bronn couldn't help but asked curiously.

Tyrion looked at Tessa again and said with a sad expression: "Maybe she thought it was too cheap to kill me directly, so she planned little by little to let me kill Shae and my father."

When Tyrion said to kill Shae, Bronn didn't care very much. After all, no one would let that woman go if he openly betrayed her on that occasion. But then Tyrion said to kill Shae. When his father died, not only Bronn, but also Podrick was shocked.

Bronn couldn't help but give Tyrion a thumbs up and said: "You are really capable. I didn't expect you to actually do it. You should have killed that old guy more than ten years ago." As he spoke, he asked curiously: "How did you kill him?"

Tyrion rolled his eyes at Bronn and said angrily: "You will know when his body is found. I don't want to say anything now. I don't want to say anything."

Tessa on the side suddenly asked Varys: "Are the ships ready?"

Varys nodded and said: "It's ready. One ship is going to Braavos and is prepared for you. However, I don't recommend that you go back to the House of Black and White now, because according to the information I obtained, Lord Linde is about to leave." Take action against Braavos. If you don’t want to get involved in the war, go to Pentos and return to Braavos later.”

After hearing what Wallis said, everyone present was stunned because the news was so shocking.

"Are you sure Lord Lind will take action against Braavos?" Tessa asked with concern.

"There is a 70% certainty." Varys said with certainty: "Not only Braavos, but also Volantis will not be able to escape. After he becomes the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms, he will definitely bring Westeros and the The territories of the Essos continent are integrated, and it is impossible for him to allow uncontrollable variables to occur in the areas he controls. "

"Become the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms?" If it was surprising enough that Varys claimed that Lind would take action on Braavos just now, then they were even more shocked now.

"What are you talking about? Varys." Tyrion couldn't help but ask: "Why will Lind become the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms? Where did you get the news?"

Varys whispered softly: "Prince Oberyn the Red Viper, the representative of Prince Doran of Dorne, proposed to elect Lynd to be the Lord of the Iron Throne. Mace Tyrell, Duke of Highgarden, and Catelyn Tully, Duke of Riverrun , Shireen Baratheon, Duke of Storm's End, and Sansa Stark, Duke of Winterfell all agreed to this proposal, and even Queen Regent Cersei also agreed to this proposal."

Tyrion couldn't help but said: "Does this mean it is only hidden from the Lannister family?"

Varys corrected: "Of course not. Isn't there Queen Cersei? She is also a Lannister."

Tyrion didn't know what to say. This news was really shocking. This was not as simple as changing the owner of the Iron Throne. This was a change of dynasty. The last time a dynasty was changed, the Seven Kingdoms War broke out, with hundreds of thousands of casualties. Talent eventually ends.

"Is there going to be another war?" Bronn frowned and said.

Varys shook his head and said: "If Duke Tywin is still there, there may be a war, but now I think Lord Jaime, who succeeded Duke of Casterly Rock, will not intend to resist Lord Lynd's army of the five kingdoms on his own. ”

"What about the Vale? What's the attitude of the Vale?" Tyrion asked again.

"They..." Just when Wallis was about to talk about the situation in the valley, an alarm bell suddenly sounded in the Red Keep, and he immediately changed his words: "Let's go! Let's get to the boat now. If it's too late, we won't be able to leave."

"You go! I want to stay." Bronn shook his head and said, "I now have the identity and territory I want. I don't want to take risks anymore. I want to enjoy my noble life."

Tyrion nodded, turned to look at Podrick, and asked, "What about you? Podrick."

Podrick said seriously: "I am your attendant. Naturally, I will go wherever you go."

"What a loyal little guy!" Wallis praised, and then said nothing more. He led a group of people to the small dock below the Red Castle, boarded the small boat waiting there, and headed towards the black water. Anchored ships approached the bay.

Bronn stayed on land and waved goodbye to them.

In the boat, Tessa asked Varys while paddling, "Where are you going next?"

"Lord Varys, are you leaving too?" Podrick looked at Varys in surprise and asked.

"Of course, if I don't leave, I can't explain how Tyrion escaped from the cell." Varys sighed, and then said: "I have prepared another ship to go to Lys. Here we are. After Lys, we will change ships and go to Slaver’s Bay, and we should be able to see Queen Nymeria and Queen Daenerys in Slaver’s Bay.”

"Us?" Tyrion was stunned and said, "When did I agree to go to Slaver's Bay with you?"

"If you don't surrender to Queen Nymeria or Queen Daenerys, then who else do you think would hire a dwarf? A circus?" Varys glanced at Tyrion and said.

Tyrion couldn't help complaining and said: "My surname is Lannister. You asked me to join a Targaryen. Do you think I won't die quickly enough?"

"You won't die." Varys shook his head and said: "Queen Daenerys is a tolerant queen and will not hold you accountable for the grievances of the previous generation. What's more, she is in urgent need of wise advisers like you. , your ability is guaranteed by Mr. Linde, I think not only will nothing happen to you, but you will be reused."

"I hope so!" Tyrion had no other solution. He could only sigh uneasily, and then turned to look at the Red Keep in the distance.
